Breast cancer is the number one cancer among Indian women and accounts for 14% of all cancers in women. In urban areas, 1 in 22 women is likely to develop breast cancer during her lifetime. Of these 1 in 2 may not survive.
One of the biggest reasons for the high mortality rates is late diagnosis which is primarily due to lack of awareness and the absence of proper breast cancer screening programme. Majority of breast cancers are diagnosed at a relatively advanced stage.
The Breast Centre at the CK Birla Hospital offers a dedicated and comprehensive range of breast health services with a focus on holistic health. It provides an individualised approach towards breast health including breast cancer prevention and screening, diagnostics, treatment (surgeries, reconstruction and chemotherapy) and rehabilitation & counselling. Our team of breast cancer experts and compassionate clinical staff combined with the state-of-the-art facility ensures the best possible experience for our patients.
We have vast experience in breast cancer resection with neo breast (Breast formation post cancer removal – either immediately or after a certain time period), breast conservation surgery with sentinel lymph node biopsy, oncoplastic breast preservation surgery, nipple sparing/skin sparing mastectomy with primary breast reconstruction and modified radical mastectomy with reconstruction. The reconstructive procedure, which is either autologous (using the tissue from patient’s body itself including microvascular free tissue transfer) or implant based, is decided as per standard guidelines. We are also one of the best centres for secondary breast reconstruction (cancer free women who want to have their breast back).
Our hospital offers a comprehensive program for breast cancer prevention. Our hospital is the only hospital in Gurgaon to offer a offer a unique breast screening technique – Tactile Breast Examination (TBE). We also offer an HBOC service (service for identifying and preventing hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome) due to BRCA gene. Our team is amongst the first to perform risk reducing mastectomies with reconstruction in this part of the world. We also offer corrective surgeries for congenital breast malformations and surgeries for granulomatous breast diseases.
